Housing New Mexico staff enjoyed connecting with the community while celebrating Homeownership Month at the 2026 Housing Fair hosted by Pueblo of Acoma Housing Authority!

Our team shared information about the resources available through Housing New Mexico, including programs supporting safe, affordable housing across the state and on tribal lands.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by, asked questions, and learned more about our available programs. We welcome the opportunity to partner with tribal governments and organizations who are also working to strengthen communities by expanding housing access to all New Mexicans. Let’s keep the conversation going.

🏡Preparing for Homeownership – Lenders can guide you every step of the way

Step 4 to Homeownership 🏡: It’s Time to Apply!

Most lenders have an online application available and a secure portal where you can upload your documents. It’s important to be neat and accurate when completing your application. Answer all questions honestly and be candid with your loan officer about any concerns you may have. They have the knowledge and experience to overcome obstacles, but they can’t do that if you aren’t honest from the beginning. Your loan officer, along with your REALTOR®, will work hard to help you become a successful homeowner. They will work together to guide you through the process and answer any questions you may have along the way.

🏡Preparing for Homeownership - Only Approved Lenders Can Offer Down Payment Assistance

Step 3 to Homeownership 🏡: Choose Your Housing New Mexico-Approved Lender

Click here to see a complete list of approved lenders: https://housingnm.org/lenders-realtors/participating-lenders

Only lenders that have been approved by Housing New Mexico are able to access our down payment assistance funds on your behalf. To begin, consider selecting two or three lenders from the list so you can compare their offers over the telephone. By calling each one and having a conversation, you’ll get a good feeling for which one you’d like to work with. Keep in mind that most lenders are extremely busy, so you’ll probably need to leave a message. Most will call you back by the next day. If they wait longer than that to call back, you may want to move on to a different lender.

🏡Preparing for Homeownership - What Lenders Need to Approve Your Mortgage

Step 2 to Homeownership 🏡: Gather Your Paperwork

When you apply for a mortgage, your lender will need to assess your financial condition and verify that you can repay the loan. To do this, lenders typically start by requesting the basic items listed below.
• Identification and proof of social security number
• Two most recent pay stubs or, if self‐employed, your tax returns for the past two years plus a current year‐to‐date Profit and Loss Statement .
• Social Security award letter(s) dated within 12 months (in some cases)
• Bank statements for the past two months on all accounts
• Investment account statements for the past two months (including 401(k) & IRA)
• Divorce decree and child support orders (in some cases)
• Names of creditors and account numbers for other types of debt such as credit cards, auto loans, personal loans and student loans
• Name and address of your landlord(s) for the past 12 months.

Please note that your lender may need additional documentation, depending on your circumstances. Always respond to your lender’s requests as soon as possible to help keep your application on track.

New Mexico Housing Strategy – 2026 Updates

New Mexico has maintained strong homeownership rates among low- and moderate-income households, with at least half of households at every income level owning their homes.

Expanded down payment assistance—supported by state investment—has helped sustain homeownership opportunities for working families, despite rising home prices and higher interest rates. If you’re interested in becoming a homeowner, see how Housing New Mexico homebuyer programs can help.
